Browser Cues

Your browser will display visual cues to let you know whether you are on a secure connection. You should not enter any personal information on an unsecured connection.

The most common browser cue is the lock image in the address bar at the top of the browser window to indicate a secure connection. The chart below provides a link to download the most current version of a browser, as well as a sample image of a lock icon to indicate a secure connection.

* See Microsoft's Lifecycle Support policy for Internet Explorer  for more information about supported versions.

To view the encryption certificate, click on the image of the closed lock in the address bar of your browser window. A small frame displaying site security information will appear.
